Even though Sassuolo hosted the match this time, it seems that Monza is still too strong for them and this narrow 1-2 victory has made Monza's position rise two places to 8th place in the standings. One of the Sassuolo players named Ruan received a second yellow card which made him leave the field in the 68th minute.
Actually, Monza had the advantage in this match because Sassuolo only played with 10 men in the second half but the game could have ended in a draw if Pessina did not score the winning goal for Monza in the injury time. Sassuolo is still quite safe in 13th place in the standings and with the games remaining now they will still be in Serie A next season.
It can be said that Monza quite dominated the match even though they were only an away team but were able to play well and get full points so that their position rose, but the result was not enough to be in a position where they could play in European competition next season and that opportunity was closed for Monza, but the current position is enough to prove that Monza is a team that is quite successful in competing with other clubs in Serie A because this is a new season because the previous season they competed in Serie B, maybe if they are a club that has a lot of financial resources and is able to strengthen its squad more again then next season will be the better achievement that can be achieved.
I think Sassoulu will be able to draw in this match, but playing 10 will certainly make it difficult to keep the net from attacks by opposing players so they have to be able to accept defeat at this home.
Currently, AC Milan would have to win all their remaining league fixtures of the season and hope that either Lazio drops 5 points or Inter drops 6 points respectively to qualify for next season's UEFA Champions League competition and that I think will be very difficult for the to achieve.
Lazio had had a good campaign in the league and would do anything possible to make sure they finish the season in the top four position while Inter who beat AC Milan to qualify for the UCL final, would also want to finish the season in the top four position
When AC Milan's fate to play in the champion's league next season is determined by the results of the matches of its rival teams, it is far more difficult than winning all the matches, maybe AC Milan doesn't need to think about the champion's league but focuses on maintaining position 5 so it can play in the European league because the US Roma, as well as Atlanta, still have a chance to ruin their current situation if Milan is not vigilant, because of course playing in the European league will be better than the conference league or not playing in European competition at all, even though it will be their big chance to get the scudetto if next season only playing in domestic competition.
